Conversation Street Podcast Episode #549


On our latest podcast, we chat about the episodes of Coronation Street shown in the UK between the 14th and the 18th November 2022 (Episodes #10795 - 10800) - well... we do as soon as we finish reeling from the news that Millie Gibson is going to be playing The Doctor's new companion in the new series of Doctor Who, anyway!

Once we finally get onto the topic of the latest goings on in Weatherfield, we kick things off, of course, with the extremism story, which continued to have us gripped this week. With Max seemingly in denial about just what sort of people he's getting involved with, Roy's epic takedown of Griff at his community centre speech and Spider's continuing lies to Toyah about his double life, there was certainly a lot to talk about there! Also this week, Debbie plans to sell the Bistro, Stu and Yasmeen finally admit their feelings for one another, and Bernie's somewhat silly, but in our opinion very entertaining, doppelgänger story reaches its epic Fern-ale.

Next up on the podcast, it's The Kabin, and there's a tonne of Corrie related news to discuss this week, including Corrie's Promax UK Award, Helen Flanagan's tease of a return to the cobbles, and the announcement of an official Coronation Street gin - the fabulously named Wonky Duck. You can bet that Gemma will be hunting down one of those to taste test on a future podcast! All that, plus the news  that Neighbours is to return to our screens next year, along with thousands of classic episodes available to stream - which gets us jolly excited about the potential for something similar to happen to all those old Corrie episodes one day!

In this week's bonus podcast, we tackle two more questions from our inquisitive listeners. First up, we ponder what Corrie SHOULD do, what they should STOP doing, and what they should NEVER do - take note, Iain Macleod! (Of course, our lack of knowledge of anything when it comes to soap budgets and filming schedules means that many of our ideas are probably a little on the ambitious side, but that certainly didn't stop us listing our numerous suggestions for improvement!) After that, with the news that the next Eurovision Song Contest will be taking place here in the UK next year, we pondered which characters from Coronation Street would make the best hosts - and who should be delivering that sarcastic commentary as the ceremony unfolds!
